Today is the first day of Black History Month. I encourage you to pick up a book written by a black author. Many have been banned in some location or another. One of my favorites is James Baldwin, quoted below.

Today we remember Edgar Allan Poe, born on January 19, 1809.

The mind behind The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, and The Fall of the House of Usher, Poe reshaped literature with psychological dread, unreliable narrators, and a haunting sense of the macabre that still echoes through horror, mystery, and pop culture today.

Dark, poetic, and unsettling—his influence never fades. 🕯️📖🖤
